Synopsis

Celina Caesar-Chavannes - author, entrepreneur, former Member of Parliament, and force of nature - joins the podcast to talk about her new memoir, "Can You Hear Me Now?" and her experience in federal politics. We talk about the importance of making mistakes in business, embracing our vulnerabilities and loving ourselves. We explore the optimism of her early days as an MP, the tokenism she experienced in the Liberal caucus as a Black MP, how race and gender informed her decision to leave the Liberal Party and sit as an independent, and the status of the anti-racism movement in Canada. And, we share out thoughts on mental health, and supporting and taking care of each other.Celina's new book, "Can You Hear Me Now?" is available now.
